The heavy rain continued, and everyone in the Maurya Dynasty was anxious.
It wasn't until the eighth day of this month that the sky finally showed mercy and the rain gradually stopped.
At that time, one-third of the land of the Maurya Dynasty was covered by floods, and countless people died in desperate situations, with few places to be buried.
After three full days of scorching sun, the floods in various parts of the Mauryan Dynasty finally began to recede.
King Ashoka and King Blue River immediately organized the three armies and were ready to challenge Zhao Rui at any time.
All five hundred flame knives have been manufactured, and everything is just waiting for the war to begin, with Ashoka and Zhao Rui having the final decisive battle.
Zhao Rui's water city has been completely built. Just like Zhao Rui's previous idea, this water city can be advanced, attacked, retreated or defended, and there are natural dangers everywhere.
He and Xu Shengfeng were overjoyed. Xu Shengfeng repeatedly congratulated him and expressed his joy to him.
Somewhere in the water, Zhao Rui seemed to have seen the banners of Dashang hanging in every corner of the Maurya Dynasty.
Zhao Rui was full of energy, and immediately organized the three armies and gathered all the soldiers in Qingtian Town and Jiangwan.
Three sticks of incense were lit at the same time, and he spoke boldly to all the soldiers of Dashang: "Brothers, this battle is not trivial. It is related to the final outcome of our trip. The dead soldiers will eventually be able to feel the supreme glory of our Dashang."
!”
"We are bound to win the Maurya Dynasty, and we must try our best to win the Maurya Dynasty. Only in this way can the dead brothers' efforts be considered in vain."
The soldiers of the three armies raised their arms and shouted, "Long live the mountains."
Since Dashang's army was well prepared and ready, Zhao Rui followed Xu Shengfeng's suggestion and ordered someone to send a letter of challenge to King Ashoka during the application time that afternoon.
Zhao Rui tried his best to ridicule and ridicule in this letter of war, which seemed to be intended to annoy King Asoka and force him to send troops and generals to come here to fight with him.
Ashoka already had five hundred flame knives in his hand, so when he read this tactic, he had no restraint in his heart at all. He immediately ordered someone to bring him a pen and paper and sketch it out.
After writing it, King Asoka ordered the messenger to send this letter of war to Zhao Rui, and also brought an oral message: "When I go back, I will tell you the great Shang King Zhao and let him wait for death!"
When the envoy heard this, he couldn't help but be stunned and said with dumbfounded words: "Your Majesty, don't you know how brave and mighty our great Shang King Zhao is? You actually left our King Zhao to die?"
Ashoka gritted his teeth and said: "It is your great Shang King Zhao who left him waiting for death!"
Seeing this, the messenger quickly turned around and left.
Probably no one in Zhao Rui's army would have thought that Ashoka of the Maurya Dynasty would be so tough in the face of the powerful merchants.
Especially in this letter of war, King Asoka used sincere words and had a firm attitude, and he did not want to give in to Zhao Rui at all.
Zhao Rui naturally felt very strange. Normally, he had dealt with Ashoka several times. Ashoka was actually a very enlightened person and would never do anything he was unsure of.
Zhao Rui even felt that this letter of challenge was probably written by someone else.
Of course, this is not important. The most important thing now is that Zhao Rui must kill King Ashoka with his own hands in this decisive battle.
One day later, Ashoka assembled almost all the main forces of the Maurya Dynasty, with King Blue River as the commander-in-chief and himself as the deputy commander, and personally went to Qingtian Town where Zhao Rui was located.
